grazers spray- slugs

berarde

I started using it last year, and although I can't say a lot about its efficacy as I mostly grow non -slug- interest plants I used it on delphiniums and helianthus and had no damage. It is fine on vegetables. I imagine it is like a garlic spray but ready made. It makes the plants taste bitter and certainly tastes very bitter. could be an organic addition to the armoury?

I have never heard of this. What is its full name, where can you buy it and what are the implications for wildlife, please?

I tried the pigeons and rabbits Grazers spray a couple of years back and I think it did help a bit but I still got damage. I haven't tried the slug one but might do this year. Their products are meant to be safe for wildlife and to spray on edibles, I believe. (Google "grazers spray" if you want to find sellers).

I'd guess it's largely garlic based. The problem with these sprays is that you need to keep applying them if you live in a wet area, as they just get washed off.
It's the same with the conventional, home made solution 

I can't stand the smell of garlic, so it's no use for me!

I have tried many remedies and still feel that picking them off is the most effective. I'm not recommending it as FUN, or aesthetically pleasing, but it really does work.
